What is the best prop choice for an OS FP .25?

It depends on what your going to put it on and what kind of flying you plan on doing.

8"Xa bunch of pitch for speed
9"X a average pitch for sport
10"X a little pitch for power or slow flight

9X5 could be a one size fits all, but it isn't.

Thanks Cajun, I should have mentioned my combat model - it is going on a SPAD Dogfighter.

I run Master Airscrew 9x4s on the one I have (on a Gremlin), and they work great.

I have found that the prop that seems to give me the best overall performance on my OS 25 FP that is in a checksix plans Hawker Hurricane is an 8x6 master airscrew. I usually prefer APC props on most of my planes but for combat planes the master airscrew props are a little more forgiving if you happen to doink them on the ground since they are more flexible.
